Review by kool_fraser Sep 06, 2007
Dirty Mind is a really great album. Right from the first track, the intensly sexual mood of the record is apparent. The first side of the LP is interesting, yet, for me, it is only when the vinyl is flipped over that things really get interesting. Side B starts with the party slammer-jammer 'Uptown'; this track is fantastic, just so much fun and good feelings. Then the next track, 'Head,' is very steamy and erotic. All in all, a good album, yet, although with this album it was starting to become clear that Prince was no ordinary artist and that he possessed in abundance a talent for unique musical expression, it is still a long way behind the pop-funk juggernauts that were 1999 (1982) and Purple Rain (1984). Last word: get down on it, get down with your bad selves. Peace and love to all.
Rated 5/5

Prince's first stone cold classic, this "thirty minute vibrator ride" (to quote Eric Weisbard, of whom I'm no fan) is the quintessential stripped-down erotic funk classic - kinks including fellating brides to open relationships to incest to wearing lingerie in public (pay attention, Madonna) get hardwired to synth-laced uptempo jams. Essential.
